This week I joined my Craft Roulette friend Irene Smith for her fun YouTube show, Card Chaos, which airs Monday evenings at 6pm Central. The challenge? Create a card in just 15 minutes using the weekly theme—this time, it was stripes!
I decided to keep my card clean and simple. I started with a Thick Basic White card base measuring 7 ½" x 5 ½", scored at 3 ¼". The striped paper comes from the beautiful Winterly Birds Designer Series Paper—the front panel is 5 ¼" x 3", and the right side strip is 1" x 5 ¼".
For the focal point, I used a White die-cut circle from the retired Spotlight on Nature die set. The sentiment, stamped in Cherry Cobbler ink, is from last month’s Fall For Toile Paper Pumpkin kit. I finished the design with a charming Robin (fussy cut from Winterly Birds DSP) and added Fir branches and Pine Cones from the Branching Out dies.
It took me just under 15 minutes—having the Robin pre-cut definitely helped!
Why not take the challenge yourself? Set a timer and see if you can create a card in 15 minutes or less. It’s a great way to stretch your creativity and have a little fun!
